The 4 substrates of this enzyme are (4-hydroxyphenyl)ethan-1-one, NADPH, H +, and O 2, whereas its 3 products are hydroquinone acetate ester, NADP +, and H 2 O. This enzyme belongs to the family of oxidoreductases , specifically those acting on paired donors, with O2 as oxidant and incorporation or reduction of oxygen.

They inhibit release of thyroid hormones by the thyroid gland.The most studied drug in this class is lithium, which inhibits thyroid hormone secretion by inhibiting iodotyrosine coupling, thyroidal iodide uptake, and alteration in structure of thyroglobulin, [10] a protein which acts as a substrate for the synthesis of thyroid hormones and storage of inactive forms of T3, T4 and iodine within ...
The mechanism of action of nitisinone involves inhibition of 4-Hydroxyphenylpyruvate dioxygenase (HPPD). [5] [6] This is a treatment for patients with Tyrosinemia type 1 as it prevents the formation of 4-Maleylacetoacetic acid and fumarylacetoacetic acid, which have the potential to be converted to succinyl acetone, a toxin that damages the liver and kidneys.

Degarelix, sold under the brand name Firmagon among others, is a hormonal therapy used in the treatment of prostate cancer. [3] [5]Testosterone is a male hormone that promotes growth of many prostate tumours and therefore reducing circulating testosterone to very low levels is often the treatment goal in the management of advanced prostate cancer.
Selinexor sold under the brand name Xpovio among others, is a selective inhibitor of nuclear export used as an anti-cancer medication.It works by blocking the action of exportin 1 [6] and thus blocking the transport of several proteins involved in cancer-cell growth from the cell nucleus to the cytoplasm, which ultimately arrests the cell cycle and leads to apoptosis.
